Is it hot this morning ?

[hyperD]

The only real cure is to start drinking again at lunchtime.

Good idea Mr Crosby, I'll crack open a stubbie and see if that helps.

The joys of working from home.

Nope. Didn't work. I'll try another and see.

Hmm. Just did a massive smelly poo. That seems to have made my arse sore, doubling the discomfort. Better try a shot of whisky as well.

Damn, clients are abeckoning... don't they know I have a hangover?

Must be a late starter then. It was 16C when I got in this morning. A toasty 21C outside now apparently. Unless that's just the micro-climate difference between Southampton and London Village...

I dunno if an 8am start is late or not. I'm only a 30min drive away from the office so I don't have to leave at stupid o'clock in the morning.

My fave hangover cure is a fried brekkie and lots of orange juice (OJ tastes the same coming back up so if you upchuck it's not such a traumatic experience!!)

Top idea Miss Muck!! Although it's getting close to lunch so perhaps 2 eggs then. Off to the shops... better remember to put my trousers on this time...

Accordng to a not-very-scientific-at-all experiment done on the TV show Braniac a fried breakfast is the best cure there is for a hangover. Beats hair of the dog, drinking lots of water, over the counter cure from the chemist etc.

Not just brainiac. I think you need the water too.
Basically the booze causes you to dehydrate and due to that you loose certain elements that your body needs. The headache is usualy from dehydration and the general tulip feeling is due to lack of sugar, salt and potassium and stuff.

The brown or tomatoe sauce deals with the sugar loss, the egg replaces a number of trace elements and the bacon sorts out the salts. A pint or two of water and you are rehydrated.
If you can hang on to it for long enough!!!!

That is not a comprehensive answer, but it covers my understanding.

I was assuming a couple of large mugs of tea as part of the breakfast

Try waiting 12 hours always cures my hangovers.

I'd say its hotter today than in the supposed hotest day on Wed.
